Unicorns can’t teleport to a place they’ve never been to. They need to be able to visualize where they’re teleporting. However, teleporting great distances can leave a great strain on their magic, and they need a 3-hour "cooldown" period after doing so before they can teleport again, but they can still use other magic.

Pinkie is the only known non-unicorn able to teleport. It’s debatable whether this is "true" magic-based teleportation, however. When asked, she replied that she "folded" herself like you would fold a beautiful crane (pulling out an origami crane out of somewhere) or delicious cake batter. Twilight knew Pinkie was flexible, but this was another thing entirely.

Some songs are so haunting they are said to literally strike fear into the hearts of ponies, doing anything from weakening the resolve of enemy soldiers to outright causing an unfortunate pony to go into cardiac arrest from sheer terror (whether this actually happened is a matter of debate.)

Starlight Glimmer is a changeling. She doesn’t know it, holding the form for so long she’s convinced herself she’s a normal pony. This is how she’s so strong at magic, after years of being around ponies she’s absorbed so much love and emotional energy she has vast reserves that can match nearly any other pony. It also explains why Sunburst leaving her was so traumatic to her as he was Starlight’s first source of emotional energy and when he left she couldn’t bare to be without that energy.

In terms of cooking, Twilight is actually the best among the Mane 6 with Applejack as a close second.

The reason Twilight doesn’t cook much is because she’s far too busy with her studies to do it, so Spike cooks for her instead. But Twilight has a vast knowledge of ingredients, recipes, cooking skills and an incredible taste. But because Applejack cooks way more than Twilight does, her skills in practice is lower than Applejacks’s which has been refined extremely.

One of the earliest things that Twilight did as a filly in Celestia’s school was set it on fire. All the teachers and students of all ages started running around in panic. The attendance rate was also the lowest that year.

She also set Celestia’s mane on fire by accident. Not that it bothered her or anything, considering that it slowly dissipated without even harming her.

There’s a kind of ghost circus that makes rounds every couple of years that lures in secretly unhappy ponies, deages them to fillies and colts if necessary, and dazzles them with shows and standard circus acts. If they are not retrieved before the circus is ’closed’, then their souls are trapped forever in it’s big top, scores of formally unfulfilled ponies now doomed to forever cheer and play on a holiday that never ends.
